I've suffered with depression my whole life along with suicidal thoughts. Medications just made it worse and counseling never seemed to help. Just indulge in the things you enjoy. Like, watch a sunset, sunset are very beautiful and relaxing and makes you realize how beautiful life is. You could also watch a comedy, it might be corny, but it will get you to smile or even laugh. Drink some wine, I'm not big on alcohol but I do like to drink a glass of wine from time to time.. it's good for you and will get you in a better mood if not to indulgent. They're many things to do that won't have you to resort to drastic measures such as medication.

See depression treatments, at http://www.ezy-build.net.nz/~shaneris in section 2, and suicidal thoughts on page 5. Find a suitable support group, through Groups, at Myspace, Google, or Yahoo, or through the above, or www.careplace.com and www.depressiontribe.com

Kinda sounds like you are not pregnant when you get 3 negative preg test you are not pregnant.
You really need to seek some medical advise there are drugs they can prescribe now that can really help with depression and recommend a good counselor. Good luck.

You need to see a doctor. Depression is treatable but only if YOU go see the doc and GET it treated. Call tomorrow and schedule an appointment with your doc to get it treated.

I was on depression medicine and the only reason it made me feel better because i always felt so out of it... like i wasn't myself. i think i was on lexipro... i'm not sure it was so long ago.
